Finally!!!

wow it has been a really long time since I have just scrapped for fun, for me, just because!!! What a rush , I love it, feels so good to do. I did this layout of Emilea from last summer. I have been holding on to this photo for awhile to scrap and I just kept thinking "she is such a timeless beauty" when I looked at it. The big floppy hat and those wonderful light blue eyes, and she has this little perfect grin that she makes. So that is how I started put down the photo and the word " timeless" and went from there. To see a complete list of supplies look HERE.


We had a great home day yesterday, chilled out here with my two little ones and we only left to go and pick up Emilea from school. This may sound boring , but let me tell you after a couple of super busy weeks it was well deserved and a needed break. Oh I definitely have to come back on here when I upload the photos from my camera and share a few... Let me just say that when I turned around yesterday there was Kaiella using her own head as a potato head, very funny!!! Oh, and some good news, two of my layouts were picked up by Scrapbook Trends for September! It was cool to get the e-mail just before Krista arrived because the two that were requested are pages I did of them ( our close friends Krista & Braden) they are totally stoked about it, and I have to say it's fun to be able to make our friends feel like stars :)


Bella is sleeping and Tiara is off on a little field trip with my mom. We have now removed all dairy completely ( not even dairy with lactaid pills) but the crazy extreme screaming seems to be back these days, not nearly like before but still extreme enough to be pretty hard on everyone, especially the other girls, they just don't know what to make of it all and it really scares them. And we try and explain but it never seems to make sense to them " her pants were just a little too tight" or " mommy seems to have chosen the wrong shirt for Tia this morning, and didn't give her enough strawberries, everything is okay" meanwhile, this usually sweet and happy girl is having a seriously frightening meltdown. It definitely wears on me some, I really like peace. Now we are not talking super nanny behavior problems situation here. This is stuff going on in her little system, we just need to look further to figure out what is all going on. So if anyone feels up for it, any prayers in this department would be really appreciated.


I'm off to have a little quiet time while the house is quiet and do a little praying of my own :)

You do such cute work, it is no surprise that a ST would want to have it in their magazine.
I love how your work is artsy but not too busy or collage-y (is that a word?) Very nice!

Gosh, I can only imagine how out of control and exhausted you are feeling with your daughter having these tantrums. My son has been a really bad sleeper since day 1, and now has night terrors and often crys. It's tough when all you want to do is help these innocent, wonderful kids, but can't seem to do anything to relieve whatever is causing them to be so uncomfortable. Wishing you my best.
